yeah its a 91 with the plus pachage so it has a power sun roof and heated/ power seats and leather int its not a bad car and yes they say with just pistons the motor can hold up tp 750hp wich i will never puch it that far maybe a exaughst system and a nitrous kit see if i can get it to the 13s on slick as long as the clutch holds..oh and i made this post just to see if some of you guys had any experiance with them cause i dont know much about it other then its a pretty quick familly car..

There was a badass one on here years ago. I think they may have gotten it into the tens with a big *** Mack truck turbo or something. The problem was the axles they would only last a few passes before the cv's ground themselves into dust.

It was my buddy's car. It traped like 118mph on street tires without even making a full pass and definitely pulled like a freight train. That car was a ton of fun at the street races.

The major flaw was the car kept blowing out 3rd gear. The trans just couldn't hold the power even when it was running a quaife LSD. With some different gears it would have ran low 11's without breaking a sweat.

i used to have a 93, and now i have a 90. they are great cars. the diff is weak, so try not to do a bunch of burnouts. the auto cars are boring, but the 5spd cars are a ton of fun. also check out shoforum.com
